Kagwerks Extended & Raised Slide Release For Glock Gen 5$56.25
Availability: In Stock
If you run a Glock Gen 3 or Gen 4 and want to dial in your grip and speed, the Kagwerks Extended & Raised Slide Release is a no-nonsense upgrade. This machined lever replaces your factory slide catch with a larger, higher-positioned control that sits where your support hand naturally wants to be. The result: better access to the release without sacrificing your grip, faster, cleaner reloads, and the repeatability that separates competent shooters from the rest.
The extended geometry lets you maintain a high, full firing grip while operating the slide release—no hand adjustment, no compromise on contact area. Whether you're training for duty, running steel matches, or just putting serious rounds downrange, this is the kind of purposeful refinement that pays dividends over hundreds of repetitions. It's a small part with outsized practical value.
Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable doing basic Glock armorer work. The Kagwerks design is engineered to be intuitive, so there's no learning curve once it's in place—muscle memory picks it up immediately.
| Brand | Kagwerks |
| Product Type | Slide Release Lever |
| Compatibility | Glock Gen 3 & Gen 4 |
| Design | Extended and Raised |
Yes. The Kagwerks Extended & Raised Slide Release is designed specifically for Glock Gen 3 and Gen 4 models. Gen 5 Glocks use a different slide catch assembly and are not compatible.
Installation is a basic armorer procedure. You'll need the standard Glock slide catch removal tool (or equivalent) to swap out the factory lever. If you're not comfortable doing the work yourself, a competent gunsmith can have it done in minutes.
The larger lever and raised position let you operate the release without repositioning your grip or breaking your high hand purchase on the frame. This means faster, cleaner reloads and easier malfunction clearance while staying locked into your shooting platform—exactly what you need under pressure.
The factory Glock lever is compact and sits lower on the frame. The Kagwerks version extends the lever upward and outward, putting it directly in the path of your support hand thumb without requiring a hand adjustment. It's a purpose-built upgrade for shooters who want faster manipulations and better ergonomics.
